[Evaluation of the small bowel with computed tomography enteroclysis: technical applications and clinical...

CT enteroclysis is an imaging technique that allows better visualization of the small bowel than standard abdomino-pelvic CT. It is more accurate than CT enterography and provides complementary diagnostic information to digestive endoscopy. Multiplanar reconstruction allows better evaluation of the diseases arising from the small bowel wall, or from surrounding organs, resulting in increased accuracy and effectiveness of this imaging technique. CT enteroclysis often enables a comprehensive assessment of small bowel disease, allowing a definite diagnosis and characterization of intestinal bowel disease, or of other related pathological conditions.
